Wi-Fi network settings

Usually, you don't need to change your settings for a Wi-Fi network; however, you might need to change your settings if you

have trouble connecting or if you need to connect manually.

The settings that are available for each Wi-Fi network depend on the type of network you're connecting to. To find out

which settings to use, if you're connecting to a home network, see the information that came with your wireless router; if

you're connecting to a work Wi-Fi network, talk to your administrator; if you're connecting to a hotspot, see the information

provided about the hotspot or talk to an employee at the hotspot who might have details about how to connect.

Password

If the Wi-Fi network is password protected, enter the password.

SSID

The SSID is the name that the network uses to identify itself. Usually, this field is automatically filled, but if the Wi-Fi

network is hidden, you must enter the SSID to connect.

Security Type

Set the security type that the Wi-Fi network uses. Depending on the network you're trying to connect to, you might

also see Security Sub Type and Inner Link Security.

CA Certificate

Set the root certificate that your BlackBerry device should use to verify that it's connecting to the correct Wi-Fi

network.

VPN Profiles

To use a VPN Profile when connecting to the network, select the profile that you want to use.

Band Type

This field is set to Dual Band by default. If the Wi-Fi network is dual-band, your device will try to connect in the 5.0

GHz band unless the signal strength at the 2.4 GHz band is significantly stronger. If you want to connect to a dual-

band network using one band only, choose the band you prefer.

Auto Obtain IP

In most cases this switch should remain On, but if you need to manually specify an IP address for your BlackBerry

device you can set this switch to OFF and the option to enter an IP address appears.

Enable IPv6
